Telescoping multi-line fishing device
Abstract
The telescoping multi-line fishing device including multiple fishing lines within an alternately expandable and collapsible structure that provides two telescopic sections connected to a center cylindrical casing with propeller power. Each section provides sliding tubes rotatably and slidably connected to each other. A quartet of spool housings in each section provides user settable timed fishing line and weighted leader release from a capsule. The spool housings features slow line extraction with automatic retraction upon a sharp tug from a fish. The fishing lines provide user set timed release. The device includes reeled retrieval.
